XRPL debut of Ethereum‑compatible smart contracts
Mainnet launch promises faster, cheaper transactions
Enhanced interoperability in XRP Ledger ecosystem
With the launch of the XRPL EVM Sidechain, developers can now deploy Ethereum‑compatible smart contracts directly within the XRP Ledger ecosystem. This means tools like Solidity, MetaMask, and Hardhat work seamlessly—bridging two major blockchain platforms and expanding XRPL’s developer appeal.
Faster Transactions, Lower Fees
The new sidechain is built to deliver high-speed, low-cost transactions. Compared to traditional Ethereum, users can expect significantly reduced gas fees and faster confirmation times—ideal for DeFi apps, NFTs, and everyday transfers. This aligns with Ripple’s ongoing effort to make XRP Ledger more efficient and cost-effective for all users.
